Django Classy

An approach to class based Views

Instead of functions use classes as views. This approach won't return a HttpResponse. It will only return a dictionary. This allows depending on who is connecting to transform the dictionary into JSON, HTML, AMF, XML.

Example:

from classy.base import View

class MyView(View):
	template = "myapp/mytemplate.html"

	def get(request, id):
		instance = get_object_or_404(MyModel, pk=id)
		return {'object':object}

There are already base classes for form views, complete model instance edit classes and list classes. More to follow.
